Gosh it would be nice if the manual scaling worked in scope mode

Hi Jeff,
Could you give me some more details. I have the Soft Front Panel open in scope mode, and manual scaling seems to be working correctly.

Scaling the Graph display is not working suppose I wanted to zoom in on a rising edge or see small variations at the flat of a pulse. Nope can't scale X or Y axises
Got none of my LabVIEW graph RCM export methods either. I really like those!

We do provide some scaling. You can scale the power by selecting Power Max(dBm) and Power Min (dBm) without changing the actual measurement.
… but the only way to change the time axis is to change the actual Capture Time (ms).
Given that this changes your data, I agree you cannot truly scale the x-axis. I've noted this as a feature request.

It seems like the Power Max and Min are the meter range and the scale follows that. You Can't really zoom into an existing capture with that!
While we are discussing feature requests, gate and fence cursors would be a lovely addition as well.

So here I set a capture using a single, internal trigger and got this:
Not terribly useful. But with a little trial and error modifying the Power Max and Power Min, I was able to scale it to this:
Without changing the device's settings or triggering again.
Now, what are looking for in a gate-cursor and fence-cursor? As it exists right now, your gate and fence selections are displayed on the graph. You can grab them, move them left or right, and it will update the values to the left. What it can't do is recalculate the Gated Average Power. After adjusting your gates and fences you have to "Apply Settings" and perform another capture. The Soft Front Panel is not calculating this. It is being retrieved from the hardware after the device has been configured and another reading has been taken.

OK, I Believe what you are showing. I don't get those features working for me
Win 7 32
LabVIEW 2012 (12.0.f3) 32
MAX 5.3.3
NI 586x 1.1
Of course, I have that 1 of 14 SFP's that still won't launch at all even after a force re-install.

No, could you link the ReadME or release notes.
I would need to have that in order to recommend a driver change to released systems supporting production.

Hello Jeff,
I don't seem to be able to find those myself online.
Probably John will be able to point out where it's available and if it could make a difference.
